20’ (6m) Truck and Trailer Delivery

This option is suitable for long distance delivery of 2 x 20’ containers, but where access means they cannot be delivered on one Semi. With this option, the trailer can be disconnected on site and each container placed from the truck only.

10’ (3m), 20’ (6m) & 40’ (12m) container HI-AB delivery

HI-AB Trucks have a mounted crane to position a container at any angle to the delivery truck (e.g. 90 º, 45°, etc.) They can also place a container on a platform/piers/raised area, over obstructions such as walls/fences etc, and can be offloaded to either the side, or the rear of the truck. Please note, 40’ High cube containers cannot be delivered via this method. The HI-AB can deliver an empty container to a reach of up to 12 metres. All HI-AB trucks differ in size. Please consult our team if you require a HI-AB truck for your storage container delivery and confirm the details of your site to ensure correct delivery. Can deliver with a truck and trailer to accommodate a 2x 20ft container.

A Side Loader is the best solution for delivery when there is limited space in front or behind where the container is to be located. Side loader delivery is ideal when the shipping container is loaded to or from the delivery address. The truck drives or reverses beside the space the container will sit. The container is then offloaded onto the ground (on the drivers’ side of the vehicle only), and lands between the two out rigger feet of the side loader, parallel to, and approximately half a metre from the side of the truck.

Tilt Tray delivery is an excellent and cost effective choice for delivery, where access and space is not strictly limited. In this method, the tray of the truck lifts up from the cab, allowing the container to slide in a controlled and safe manner slowly until the back edge is on the ground. The truck then drives forward, and the container remains stationary, continuing to gently slide lower down the tray of the truck until it is wholly unloaded.
